GRATITUDE SUNDAY

Sunday's heartfelt tradition, a time to slow down, to reflect, to be grateful. A list of gratitudes.

It has been really difficult this week, since we have all been so ill, but I suspect that is the exact time you should try harder to see the good things around you.

Throughout the week I have felt grateful for :

♥ Cheeky breakfasts (waffles honey and cream)

♥ Good books and knitting to cheer me up

♥ Modern medicine (ibuprofen after 3 days of resistance helped my infection)

♥ Random toys around the house, evidence of imagination and play

♥ Rosehip and honey tea

♥ Artwork from my boy (changing again, moving into the next stage)

♥ Playtime with his sister (allowing me time to rest)

♥ Flowers from my boys

♥ Being able to text my brother every day to check on my Mum (since we cant visit right now)

♥ A stranger offering me a crochet lesson (one of the other nursery Mums)

♥ Aldi - sounds odd, but Aldi sell free range chicken at good prices and we all need chicken soup
